Fairfield

While visiting my sister and her family, we drove to the Jelly Belly Factory for their free tour. It was Veteran's Day, so Mike was able to come with us, but since it was Veteran's Day, it was pretty crowded! That's okay, because it was so much more fun to go with family! It's definitely worth a visit. The tour is free, and the factory is in operation Monday through Friday, so you actually get to see the jelly beans being made. Of course, there are samples, too; it was an all around fun time!

After lunch, we went to the Budweiser factory for a tour. Apparently, this plant used to also bottle beer, but that part has been shut down, so this was not much of a tour. Mostly, there are a few videos with an opportunity to sample two beers, with a short walk down to the cellar. We got a chance to try Michelob Ultra Dragonfruit Peach, which was pretty yummy. They also had unlimited soda and pretzels, which kept the kids plenty happy!

About Us

We are a family of seven: mom, dad, three girls and a boy (+ one more girl!!!). Here you'll find a chronicle of our journey following God's lead in our lives--from our choice to leave behind "regular life" as we knew it to travel the United States in our fifth wheel...back to stationary life again in a house...and back to RV life (stationary this time) again. It's an adventurous life!
